Justice Ginsburg: ‘I Wasn’t 100% Sober’ At The State Of The Union

Posted by | February 13, 2015 11:00 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


In case you’re wondering why the SCOTUS justice dozed a little during the speech.

In a lighthearted moment before an audience at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., Thursday night, the 81-year-old Ginsburg cracked up telling the story that she “wasn’t 100 percent sober” before going to the State of the Union…

“Justice Kennedy brought in … it was an Opus something or other, very fine California wine that Justice Kennedy brought and I vowed this year just sparkling water, stay away from the wine,” Ginsburg told the audience. “But in the end, the dinner was so delicious, it needed wine to accompany it.”

      Yeah, Scalia needs to get his problem under control.

      You have no reason to think she drinks. Just like I have no reason to think you need a magnifying glass to find your penis.

    ah, well, it would certainly explain some of the court’s decisions.
